Hmmm....

As many of you know, Mobicon is coming up, and Dave and I were kicking around the idea of a Cannonball Run themed room party. The original plan was to rent an RV and park it in the hotel parking lot for the occasion, but then the ever amazing Dizzy managed to book me a room in the hotel (after I had been assured by the front desk guy that there were no rooms available that weekend, not no way, not no how. Dizzy continues to amaze me.) Eliminating our need for the RV. I still want a clever excuse to go ahead and make that Captain Chaos hood and cape I've always wanted though... all seemed lost. Then I came across this on the amazing thing we call the internet:

The Cannonball Run drinking game.

Whenever the sheik's intro music is played - 1 drink

Whenever the Japanese music is played (to introduce Jackie Chan) - 1 drink

Anytime that Roger Moore stops a woman from pressing a button in the car. - 1 drink.If the woman presses the button - 2 drinks

When Dom Deluise sings the Dr. Pepper theme - 2 drinks

Anytime you can see Farrah Fawcett's nipples through her shirt - 1 drink

Anytime the Black guy in the pickup truck does an impersonation - 1 drink

When the Lone Ranger theme comes on - 1 drink

During the closing credit bloopers anytime the clicker is clicked - 1 drink.

So, now I'm thinking that we could develop a special drink for shots during this game, call it "the Cannonball Rum" and make up flyers inviting as many people as we can to it, and proceed to rock the hizzy. (Whatever the hell that means) Who's in?

About the blogs title:

I once met a man who insited that as time passes, your life force passes up the evolutionary scales... from dogs, to cats, to cows, to human. So, the cows of today were the cats of the middle ages, the cats of today were the dogs of rome, and so on. When I asked him where the humans of today came from, he proudly said to me, "We were the Dogs of Atlantis" and so we are.
